Scope and Contents

Carl Albert, a Representative from Oklahoma, thanks the committee for holding a hearing on H. R. 6515, which aims to provide loans to members of the Five Civilized Tribes for business, agricultural, and educational purposes. He praises Congressman Bill Stigler for his work on tribal issues and emphasizes the need for more funding, less restrictive credit terms, and better administration of the program. Albert believes that the success of the program depends on the involvement of tribal members who understand the needs of their communities. He concludes by yielding the floor to representatives who can provide firsthand evidence of the program's effectiveness.
